Hi , We are using mpg123 cross compilation --toolchain : arm-linux-gnueabihf -- for AM335x

command : configure:

./configure CC=arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc --host=x86_64 --target=arm-linux-gnueabihf- --prefix=/home/vk29835/Audio/mpg123/ --with-default-audio=alsa --with-cpu=neon

then make. -- while doing make : saying -lasound not found -----

/bin/bash ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-all-loops -finline-functions -ffast-math -g -O2 -o mpg123 audio.o buffer.o common.o compat.o control_generic.o equalizer.o getlopt.o httpget.o resolver.o genre.o mpg123.o metaprint.o local.o playlist.o streamdump.o term.o wav.o xfermem.o libmpg123/libmpg123.la legacy_module.o output/alsa.o -lasound -lm

here we can giv CFLAGS or LDFLAGS -- but not able to give which path --libasound -- it is saying "/arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/ld " ld in the toolchain ---lasound unable to found --

NOT ONLY THIS -- same error came for the user-space audio application -- in the cross compilation with like:

example : arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc audio-app.c -o test-audio : for this also we got "-lasound not found"

I think toolchain is not having -- libasound --

Please any one help us in this issue.

Hi,

When you are using this option "--with-default-audio=alsa " while configure script it tries to link with the libasound library, try without this option, hopefully it shouldn’t link and it should build.

Hello Viswanath,

Could you also have a try with the toolchain from the SDK, since they contain alsa libraries.

Best regards,
Kemal

Hi Prabhakar,
we are using this for MP3 Decoder, for that ALSA is required
This error is due to the toolchain : audio related files are missing. So i added those then it is started working.

Hi Kemal ,

As u said the tool chain in SDK is having every thing -- from there only i took the missing files to the linaro tool chain 4.7 -- then it is fixed the issue.

1. in Linaro tool chain those are not existing all things
2. Ti arago toolchain is having all things --

Please provide every cross compilation for the audio/video encoders/decoder so that it helps for the user.
I know TI is giving better support than any other -- but not giving properly.

As i see -- we are facing dependency files missing , nd not knowing properly how to cross compile and to use , like these small things most of the people facing -- it is easy like us people -- we can suggest TI processors for clients --
